Question

Apparently my last question was too vague even though it was pretty straightforward.

I’m trying to use Embed.ly’s API to embed some stuff, for example, some of the stuff shown here.
https://github.com/embedly/embedly-php/blob/master/README.rst

I have the entire Embedly.php source file in my working directory.

However, when I have the following in my header file:

<?php
        //require_once('Embedly/src/Embedly/Embedly.php');  // if using pear
        require_once('./Embedly.php');  // if using source

        $api = new Embedly\Embedly(array('user_agent' => 'Mozilla/5.0 (compatible;     mytestapp/1.0)'));
?>

And the following in my main page:

<?php
    $objs = $api->oembed(array(
    'urls' => array(
    'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPbJ4Z5D-n4&feature=topvideos',
    'http://twitpic.com/3yr7hk'
)
));
    ?>

I get the following error:

( ! ) Fatal error: Call to undefined function Embedly\curl_init() in C:\wamp\www\Embedly.php on line 259

It looks like curl isn’t installed or enabled.

If you’re on you own server (assuming something similar to ubuntu server), a simple sudo apt-get install php5-curl should solve it.

Otherwise, you may have to contact your hosting provider.
